What is a safari?
The word “safari” comes from Swahili and originally meant “a long journey.” Traditionally, it referred to travelling through the bush or wilderness to explore nature and wildlife. Today, a safari describes an adventure through African destinations, often involving visits to national parks and reserves. Wildlife-viewing excursions in these parks are commonly called game drives.

Best Time to Visit Tanzania for Safari
Choosing the best time to visit Tanzania for a safari depends on wildlife movement, weather conditions, travel style, and your starting point. Tanzania is a year-round safari destination, but each season offers a different experience—from dramatic river crossings during the Great Migration to lush green landscapes with fewer crowds.
Whether you are planning a private safari, a group safari, or a fly-in safari from Zanzibar, understanding Tanzania’s safari seasons helps you maximise wildlife sightings, comfort, and value
Best Time for the Great Migration
The Great Wildebeest Migration is one of the most iconic wildlife events in the world and a significant reason travellers choose Tanzania for safari.
Migration highlights by season:
-
January – March (Calving Season – Southern Serengeti & Ndutu)
Best time to witness wildebeest calving, predator action, and big cat sightings. Ideal for photographers and travellers seeking intense wildlife drama.
-
June – July (Western Serengeti)
River crossings along the Grumeti River begin. Wildlife concentrations increase as herds move north.
-
August – October (Northern Serengeti)
Peak season for Mara River crossings. This is the most popular time for travellers booking Tanzania safaris from Zanzibar and overseas.
💡 For clients flying in from Zanzibar, migration safaris are easily accessible via scheduled or charter flights directly into Serengeti airstrips.
Dry Season vs Green Season Safaris
Understanding the difference between the Dry Season and the Green Season helps travellers choose the safari style that best fits their expectations and budget.
Dry Season (June – October)
-
Best wildlife visibility due to shorter grass
-
Animals gather around water sources

Green Season (November – May)

-
June – October: Best weather, smooth flights, and peak wildlife viewing
-
January – March: Excellent for migration calving season and short fly-in safaris
